Now that I have accomplished my studies I am very happy to return back to my homeland, longing to meet my beloved family. The changes that has developed in Tokelau gave me the feeling of insecurity because my people are facing challenges such as sea level rising and the bad climate changes. Luckily they use the wall water and stilts to protect themselves. Hopefully, the knowledge that I bring from NZ can support the modernization in my country.

ANZAC day is a special day where we commemorate those who had sadly died in the war. This ceremony is held on the 25 of April because it was the day that the Austrailian and New Zealand army corps lay foot on Gallipoli. Services are held at dawn because in battles dawn was the perfect time to attack the enemy. Poppies and Biscuits are the main symbols of ANZAC because during the war the only plants that grew were poppies and biscuits were made by the soldier's wives. ANZAC is not only remembering those who fought in the war but most importantly it's a respectful time where we actually thank those man for risking their lives for us.
